Abstract: Abstract: We succeeded in growing a single crystal of with the orthorhombic crystal structure by the Sn-flux method and measured the electrical resistivity, magnetic susceptibility and specific heat. The magnetic easy-axis corresponds to the [001] direction, while the [100] and [010] directions are hard-axes. The crystalline electric field (CEF) scheme is proposed for . [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
